Sweet Charity - - - ->about time someone revived this

Posted: 6/24/04 at 1:07am

I dont know if we had a thread about this yet, but I can't even begin to say how excited I am about having this show come back to broadway. I really hope that it is done well, I think Christina Applegate is going to be sublime in this part. Its one of my favourite musicals right now, and I think that it will do very well.
Any thoughts?

You've gotta have heart AND music

I can't say that I have a whole lot of objectivity when it comes to pieces of Mr. Fosse's - he's one of my creative heroes. A curiosity I have is what is Ms. Applegate's theatrical background? I have no reason to think she can't do the role, I'm just curious.

I don't think she has much theatrical background or vocal training - although I'm sure she's getting that as we speak. She can dance though, or so we're told.

Faced with these Loreleis, what man can moralize!

Not that this really counts for anything but I saw a movie in which she lifted her leg right to her face, so I suspect she does have a lot of dance training.

Don't make me brag. ;)

Christina was a trained dancer and singer before getting a bigger break in TV.

So will Cilento try to re-create the Fosse moves or start from scratch? It is hard to imagine BIG SPENDER or any of the numbers without some of the Fosse flair.

PEACE.
